- FIG. 10 depicts a container unit 10 which includes an outer compartment whose upper cylindrical wall 12 joins the frusto- conical bottom wall 14 to form a hopper-like outer component or compartment having an axially disposed bottom opening ring 16.
- the outer compartment has a top opening which is of annular form by reason of the existence of the inner compartment 18.
- the inner compartment comprises a cylindrical wall 20 whose lower edge 22 normally protrudes through the bottom opening 16 but is axially slidable there through.
- the lower end of the cylindrical wall 20 carries a convergent skirt 24 whose lower L-shaped free edge 26 forms an anchor to which the periphery of the flexible, frangible diaphragm 28 is secured as by the wire wrap 30 or other similar fastening element such as a circular clamp or the like.
- the unit is supported by a horizontal ring or circular stand 32 having a plurality of uprights 34 attached at their upper ends to the outside of the wall 12 and peripherally spaced there around.
- the outer component 10 is normally held in fixed position by the stand, as when at rest on the ground as in Figure 2 or on the bed of a transporting truck or on a discharge chute assembly as is shown in Figure 3.
- this entity is provided with a protective top or cover 36 which is joined in any suitable fashion to the open top end of the cylindrical wall 20 in a fashion which forms a hermetic seal around and over the outwardly rolled lip 38 and this entity is initially removed from the outer compartment, inverted so that its bottom opening is uppermost, whereafter the desired and correct amount of cement 40 is loaded into the inner compartment and the diaphragm 28 put in place and secured by the wire wrap 30. The entire entity is then inverted and slid axially into the outer compartment.
- the guide ring 42 is secured within the outer compartment wall 12 by means of a plurality of spaced arms 44 which center the ring 42 coaxially with the bottom opening ring 16.
- the inner compartment 18 is axially slidable with respect to the outer compartment but the downward limit of sliding is determined by the engagement of its bottom shoulder 45 with the bottom opening ring 16 so that the diaphragm 28 remains positioned above the surface upon which the stand ring 32 is supported.
- the inner compartment includes a target T fixed to the inner surface of the wall 20 by the radial arms 33 leading to the central socket or eye 35, the purpose of which will be apparent in a moment.
- the loading chute comprises a stand 50 consisting of a plurality of vertical legs 52 carrying a rectangular frame 54 within which supporting beams are fixed and upon which a number of radial support brackets rest 58.
- the brackets 58 are fixed to the outer surface of the cylindrical chute wall 60 within which the conical baffle 62 is fixed by a plurality of circumferentially spaced arms 64.
- the loading chute assembly is disposed beneath a suitable supply hopper, not shown, containing the desired aggregate such as sand and gravel in the case of concrete making or of sand in the case of mortar making. In any case, the outer compartment is loaded with the requisite quantity of aggregate 41 which when mixed with the quantity of cement 40 will yield the desired mixture of concrete or of mortar.
- Figure 4 is a plan view of the loading chute and illustrates that the arms 64 are in reality two angle irons passing completely through the baffle 62 at different levels, for maximum rigidity.
- FIGS 3A and 3B show the container unit in association with the discharge arrangement.
- the discharge chute is indicated generally by the reference character 70 and rests upon a stand 72 with four legs 74 which elevates the discharge chute at a height allowing the chute 70 to discharge into the inlet hopper of a concrete mixer, not shown.
- the chute 70 has a plurality of feet 76 attached to the outside of the convergent portion 78 of the chute, just below the circular mouth 80.
- the chute defines a rectangular discharge mouth 82, see particularly Figure 5.
- the chute includes the lance 84 which is targeted with the target area defined by the target T in the inner compartment and when the loaded container is lifted as by its lifting ring R and lowered onto the target lance, the knife blades of the latter will penetrate and sever the diaphragm 28 and allow the lance to enter the socket 35.
- the inner compartment will start to raise relative to the outer compartment and ultimately will raise in consonance with the lowering of the unit. This effect is shown in Figures 3A and 3B and will allow the inner compartment to move from its stoppering position in the outer compartment to an unstoppering position allowing the contents of the outer compartment to escape and mingle with the contents of the inner compartment in the concrete mixer.
- the lance itself is rigidified by the cross pieces 86 which are underlying and form a cross leading to the central spear or tube L and on whose upper surface the knives K are provided.
- Figures 9 through 14 depict an alternative embodiment which does not include a target. Furthermore, this embodiment includes a modified lance means having a larger diameter so that the lance engages the lower edge of the inner compartment and results in raising of the inner compartment relative to the outer compartment. This allows the inner compartment to move from its stoppering position in the outer compartment to an unstoppering position similar to the first described embodiment.
- FIG. 6 a collapsible container unit is shown.
- the outer container wall is formed by the flexible material 90 reinforced by the spiral wrap of steel wire 92 and this wall is affixed or clamped at its upper end to the metal ring 94.
- Radial arms 96 secure the ring 94 to an inner ring 100 which attaches to a sleeve 98.
- the sleeve 98 forms a sequence thereof 98, 99 and 101 which telescope as shown and surround the inner flexible wall 104, again reinforced by the wire spiral 106, which is clamped to the inner ring 100 at its upper end and to the sleeve 108 at its lower end.
- the sleeve 108 is secured to the sleeve 101.
- the target T is constructed as above described and the bottom mouth of the sleeve 108 is closed by the diaphragm 110 which is clamped in placed by the wire clamp or wrap 112.
- a cover C may be secured in place to back up the diaphragm.
- Flexible straps S pass from the anchors A around anchor eyes G to the adjacent eye G as shown and around this eye down to an anchor A, there being two complete strap units as indicated. These are used to lift the assembly and hold it while being loaded, whereafter the compartment may be capped by the covers 114 and 116 for hermetic sealing and protection.
- Figures 15 and 16 show a collapsible container unit in conjuction with the embodiment of the *invention not including a target means and including the modified lance means.
- FIG. 8 the configuration of Figure 8 is shown.
- This embodiment may be used when but a single material is to be handled, as for example waste material such as potentially hazardous waste material.
- a stand 120 is used as in Figure l and an inner support 122 suspends the stopper assembly SA into normal stoppering position.
- the upper end 126 contains an air bellows part 130 which is used to force stopper part 125 into its bottom sealed position. This is effected by applying air pressure to fitting part 133.
- the part 128 carries the target T and slides through the opening of the discharge mouth 130.
- a seal ring 131 around the discharge mouth carries the O-ring 132 and effects the stoppering action.
- Figure 17 shows the modification shown in Figure 8 in the embodiment of the invention including the modified lance means and not including the target means.
- the invention is primarily intended for use as a container and system for concrete and aggregate handling, but has broader application to the storage and transport of many types of solids and liquids.
